Precious Fur Employment Application

Precious Fur Cat Sitting cares for cats in the comfort of their own homes all over SF and the East Bay, 365 days a year from 6am to 9pm, but we are especially busy on the weekends and holidays while folks travel for all sorts of celebrations. To ensure we can take care of ALL lonely kitties, we rely on several flexible part-time professional employees with varying availability to cover specific territories and work with a management team that takes care of client scheduling and other office communication.

We currently have openings for a few flexible part-time employees across the city. Compensation starts at $16 per 30-minute visit and $28 per hour-long visit, with the opportunity for performance-based rate increases and role advancement. Additionally, sitters receive reimbursements for cell phone usage; mileage and parking fees; and often receive tips from happy clients.

Although the company schedule is created and maintained by management staff, each sitter has the flexibility and expectation to manage their own individual schedules within company time windows (see below) and client service dates. Employees must have and maintain a smart phone with a cellular data plan and functional camera and have excellent communication skills.

Are you interested in making some supplemental income by making kitties feel loved and cared for while their families are away? Please apply by completing the following survey.

If it looks like you might be a good fit, we'll be in touch via email. Please note that sometimes our responses get filtered to SPAM/PROMOTIONS/SOCIAL folders. You can reach us with any questions at hiring@preciousfur.com.
